Reader Feedback: Lithium Batteries and Electric Cars

April 8, 2014
A Reader Disagrees With Our Editor On All Fronts About Lithium Batteries and Electric Cars


Dan, your article, "What Killed the Electric Car?" (October 2013) is one of the most stupid articles I've ever read. Maybe is time for you to retire. You really don't know much about the subject. You're wrong on all the topics. Moore's law does apply to batteries. Tesla doesn't have "a government subsidy of up to $45,000 for each vehicle sold." Hybrids are only good at protecting Big Auto's legacy.
